Computers in some parts of Houston may be more bug-ridden than elsewhere. The "bugs" are crazy Rasberry ants -- named after Tom Rasberry, who appears in the Fox video above, who is trying to terminate them.

"They're itty-bitty things about the size of fleas, and they're just running everywhere," said Patsy Morphew of Pearland, who is constantly sweeping them off her patio and scooping them out of her pool by the cupful. "There's just thousands and thousands of them. If you've seen a car racing, that's how they are. They're going fast, fast, fast. They're crazy."

And yes, there is a technology angle: "they, like some other species of ants, are attracted to electrical equipment, for reasons that are not well understood by scientists," says the story.

They have ruined pumps at sewage pumping stations, fouled computers and at least one homeowner's gas meter, and caused fire alarms to malfunction. They have been spotted at NASA's Johnson Space Center and close to Hobby Airport, though they haven't caused any major problems there yet.
